Northwest Video Scrapbook VI - World Premiere

O.k. after days, weeks, months, & years of work, Northwest Video Scrapbook VI will be premiering in Boise, ID this weekend, Saturday May 3rd. details below...

Just to give you an idea on where Northwest Video Scrapbook from, I have been kayaking and exploring here in the Columbia River Gorge for over 9 years now and I have met so many paddlers and friends along the way. Northwest Video Scrapbook was developed just for those people, the paddlers and friends that I have been lucky enough to paddle with, explore new adventures, and run some amazing whitewater with. There are so many paddlers in the Pacific Northwest and most tend to stay in local groups as most paddlers have their favorite stretches of whitewater close by, but when flows and conditions are right these paddlers venture out and cross over into other paddlers backyard runs. I have consistantly explored this area and after 9 years I still feel as if I haven't even scratched the surface of exploring the rivers and creeks here.

The reason this release is called VI is because it is the sixth disc I have put together. The first five were given away to friends as they were made just for fun (These chapters can be seen on Oregonkayaking.net under 'Video Journals of Ryan Scott'), this disc picks up where those left off and I have included editing and cinematography from a few local paddlers, Jacob Cruser has edited a chapter from his recent adventures & Austin Rathmann has edited an Eagle Creek mission and his monumental Charlie Munsey Interview is a must see! I also brought in music from our local bands, and I've made the step toward premiering this video so more local paddlers can enjoy. I have no sponsors for this film, just the help of a few friends along the way and this will become an ongoing local series for you, the local PNW paddlers. enjoy.

I have decided to make a small quantity of this video to see how the interest goes, I am still in the process of setting up the 'buy now' feature on the site. If you would like a copy of the video before then you can contact me at crgproductions@gmail.com.
